Light the Night is an annual lantern walk uniting Australians affected by blood cancer. When the event transitioned online during the COVID-19 pandemic, its visual identity was reimagined to accommodate a fully virtual experience.

I led the redesign and developed creative guidelines for partner agencies, ensuring a cohesive and adaptable campaign across digital platforms. The new identity used diverse illustrated characters and Australian landscapes to reflect that blood cancer can touch anyone, anywhere.
